“Fascism should rightly be called Corporatism, as it is the merger of corporate and government power.” - Benito Mussolini

Fascism is Capitalism’s immune system, activated when the wealth gap gets too large.

Activated when the people get’s too aware of the exploitation and begins fighting back

In simpler terms, it’s greed.

That’s too close to a “it’s just human nature” asspull too often used to justify capitalistic skullduggery.

If everything is capitalism, then nothing is capitalism

According to your logic: If everything is the universe then nothing is the universe

And according to yours, capitalism is the universe?

You get it

They’re not even saying everything is capitalism though.

In what I’ve observed from a certain demographic on here, there seems to be a theme

Everything isn’t capitalism, but fascism is always funded by the capitalist class. In fact it can’t get far without it. Fascism doesn’t just randomly sprout out of the ground; it’s not as organic & grassroots as most people think. Fascism is always a false revolution, because the capitalist class always remains in power. It’s what the capitalist class falls back on when liberal democracy starts to fail them. It’s when the capitalist class goes mask off. That’s what Lenin meant by “fascism is capitalism in decay.” Michael Parenti: Rational Fascism

How did January 6 happen? With a whole bunch of funding from rich motherfuckers.

The Nation: Trumpism: It’s Coming From the Suburbs

But scapegoating poor whites keeps the conversation away from fascism’s real base: the petite bourgeoisie. This is a piece of jargon used mostly by Marxists to denote small-property owners, whose nearest equivalents these days may be the “upper middle class” or “small-business owners.” […] Trump’s real base, the actual backbone of fascism, isn’t poor and working-class voters, but middle-class and affluent whites. Often self-employed, possessed of a retirement account and a home as a nest egg, this is the stratum taken in by Horatio Alger stories. They can envision playing the market well enough to become the next Trump. They haven’t won “big-league,” but they’ve won enough to be invested in the hierarchy they aspire to climb. If only America were made great again, they could become the haute bourgeoisie—the storied “1 percent.”

The CSA precedes the Nazis. In fact, Nazi race laws were partially based on slavery laws from the southern US.

Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, et al: am I a joke to you?

Ehh i wouldnt agree, heavy capitalists are usually pretty liberal because they dont like regulation. There is some precident of big factory and company owners actually fighting against faschism(not for the good reasons tho). I do agree with lesser right wing ideologies just being “recruitment” for far-righters. Wewe seen them radicalise so many times in the past that it should be obvious by now that any amount of right leads to more far-right.
